Hi, Up to a recent kernel upgrade (I think it was Gentoo 2.6.16-r'something') the following would result in sound being output to my amp via my spdif output :
aplay -D hw:0,1 whatever.wav however, now it does not aplay -D spdif whatever.wav still does work. I've tried 1.0.11 and 1.0.12 with no change. This would be fine, but for MythMusic i had a .asoundrc file that does rate conversion (otherwise anything sampled not at 48000Hz play ultra fast!) The relevant section from my .asoundrc : <snip> # Alias for digital (S/PDIF) output on the card # Do not use this directly--it requires specific rate, channels, and format pcm.digital-hw { type hw card 0 device 1 # - Comment out "device 1" above and uncomment one of the below or create a # new "device N" line as appropriate for your sound card or # device 2 # device 4 } # Direct software mixing plugin for digital (S/PDIF) output on the card # Do not use this directly--it requires specific rate, channels, and format pcm.dmix-digital { type dmix ipc_key 1235 slave { pcm "digital-hw" period_time 0 period_size 1024 buffer_size 4096 rate 48000 } } </snip> Is this loss of hw:0,1 an intentional change? If it is how can I do the rate conversion I need? If it isn't intentional, any ideas how to resolve this? Some other info : [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ aplay -l **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** card 0: V8237 [VIA 8237], device 0: VIA 8237 [VIA 8237] Subdevices: 4/4 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 Subdevice #1: subdevice #1 Subdevice #2: subdevice #2 Subdevice #3: subdevice #3 card 0: V8237 [VIA 8237], device 1: VIA 8237 [VIA 8237] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 Any help you can give would be good.
